A custom exhaust blanket is a thermal insulation cover that is specifically designed and fabricated to fit the exact dimensions, shape, and configuration of an exhaust pipe, manifold, turbo, or other hot exhaust components. Unlike standard “one-size-fits-all” wraps or blankets, custom exhaust blankets are engineered to match your equipment precisely, ensuring maximum heat containment, durability, and safety.
They are usually constructed from high-temperature resistant materials such as fiberglass, silica fiber, ceramic fiber, or basalt, with outer layers like silicone, PTFE, or aluminized fabric for additional heat reflection, abrasion resistance, and environmental protection.
Precise Fit for Maximum Efficiency
A custom blanket tightly follows the shape of your exhaust system, eliminating gaps or loose areas where heat could escape.
Better coverage = better thermal insulation.
Improved Heat Containment
Reduces surface temperatures of exhaust pipes dramatically.
Protects surrounding hoses, wires, and sensitive components from heat damage.
Enhanced Safety
Prevents accidental burns from exposed hot exhaust pipes.
Lowers ambient engine bay or equipment surface temperatures, creating a safer working environment.
Performance Benefits
Retains exhaust gas heat, which can improve exhaust flow and reduce turbo lag in performance applications.
Helps engines run cooler and more efficiently.
Durability in Harsh Conditions
Custom fabrication ensures the blanket withstands vibration, movement, and high thermal cycling without shifting out of place.
Noise Reduction
Provides a secondary benefit of dampening engine or exhaust noise.
